 SOCEC Events
​

The South Orange County Economic Coalition hosts several events throughout the year. Our general membership meetings happen on a monthly basis and feature a wide variety of topics.

 

The annual Legislative Meet & Greet event is an evening in which our members can mix and mingle with local elected officials in a fun and more causal environment. With no set program other than a brief introduction, the event allows guests to flow freely and speak to as many representatives as possible. Elected officials from Congress to local Special Districts are invited and regularly attend this event.

 

The Coalition’s signature event is the Economic Report. The economic report is a data and market analysis for the cities of Orange County. This report provides insight on the cities, planned communities, and industries that contribute over $25 billion to Orange County’s economy.
